I just thought I'd show you a little something of the progress of my latest quilt project.

This week has been an all or nothing week; with much time "wasted" (you know ~ internet browsing, shopping, hair appointment, catching up with friends ~ the fun stuff) in between bursts of frantic piecing, usually late at night.

Once all the Half Square Triangles were pieced I played with the layout for quite some time, arranging and re-arranging the unit orientation as well as the color sequence with which I am now (finally) pleased. I am still considering adding sashing strips between some or even all of the rows.

Wow, this is amazing! No sashing emphasizes the two directional Escher-esque qualities of the design, and I love the way that the spectrum of colors pops against the Heath grey.In my book, that's a lot of progress in a week!

I love it! The nubby look of the grey fabric is great. I didn't read through the comments, but I hope you leave it un-sashed: I think that the grey "geese" look great marching down the quilt while the rainbow geese head up.Sarah
